Turn 2
Initiative rolls 8:8, draw, initiative goes to Minervan
The Emperor really watched over the men and women of the Minervan Legion, which used the force speed they gained to escape the trap the eldar forces layed on the right flank.
The Tank Company on the threatened right flank opened fire, simply annihilating the Windrider host.
In a second activation, the Stormtroopers tried to get rid of the Guardian warhost with Phantom Droids, threatening their flank along with the second Windrider host an the second Falcon troupe. Although the activation of the Rocket pods and precise Plasma rifle fire, they managed only to thit 2! guardians, not enough to secure their position within the city.
Now Initiative turns to the Eldar forces, which they use to erade the Warhound Titan from existance. In a spectacular show of firepower, several lances fired from falcon troupe 1 penetrated the void shields of the mighty warmachine. It was send to ground within seconds after opening fire.
On their second activation, the Falcon troupe 2 tried to marshall their blast markers they have carried over. They shot on the tank company on their flank....and rolled snake eyes on the marshall roll. 
The Shadowsword gain a LOS on one of the Eldar tanks trying to get back in order, and erade one from existance with his Volcano cannon. This is too much for the battered Falcon troupe and they flee in cover toward their Blitzkrieg objective.
With a scream, a Nightwing squadron leaped down to avenge their comrades, targeting the lone Shadowsword, doing one point of damage. The second Nightwing squadron was held off in an adjacted Sector by freshly arrived IN Squadrons and refused to engage the Shadowsword.
The Autarch decided, it it time to show the pitty Chem-pan-sey the might of the swordwind by making an example on the infantry platoon. The Commissar of the platoon, quite plainly looking on the extinction of his man, raised his chainsword and ordered them to open fire. If they will die, they will take as much treehuggers with them as they get.  In a two turn engagement, the two formation nearly annihilate each other, leaving back 55 dead guardsmen, 4 destroyed Chimeras. The Aspect warrior warhost has ceased to exist in the moment the brave guardsmen gunned down the lone 5 Firedragons (1 surviving stand) tried to get back up the hill they came from. Badly hit, a lone seagent tried to get back the survivors into combat readiness, so they remained broken in the wood.
The second tank company, racing through the city targeted the already shot, but combat ready, Guardian Warhost. The brute show of firepower annihilated them, and only ten fearless (haha) Phantom droids escaped the carnage.
Rally Phase:
Void Spinner rallies, but Phantom Droids and Falcon troupe decided to stay out of combat.
Infantry platoon rallies, but Vultures not (funny guys on the way to get executed)
